Chapter 651 Heard There Was a Punching and Kicking
"This idea is really great," Yotsuya Iwanao retracted his reddened hand, disregarding the pain in his palm, and continued excitedly, "Are you also a Photography Enthusiast of Horror Movie?"
"No," Chi Feichei said, "I just like to watch them."
"That's such a Pity. If you were to film a Horror Film, you would definitely be able to provide a lot of excellent ideas. I'm not a fan of those Horror Movies on the market now that aren't scary at all," Yotsuya Iwanao said with a face of Regret, and quickly asked again, "By the Way, which University are you from? Would you like to join our Interest Club?"
"I have already Graduation from University," Chi Feichei said.
"Really?" Yotsuya Iwanao was a little surprised, "You look much younger than me."
"What about you?" Chi Feichei didn't explain, but asked back, "Which University are you from?"
"I am a Student of Tama Art University," Yotsuya Iwanao scratched his head and smiled, "I started to get into photography in High School, and I fell in love with Horror Movies. After entering University, I joined the Horror Photography Club."
"Graduating soon?"
"Yeah, This Year."
"Do you have any plans for future Work?"
"I'm thinking of seeing if I can find a Film Crew. I hope to make a Movie that can be shown in Major Cinemas in the Future, hahaha... Although I may not be able to find a job in a Film Crew, I might go to a TV Station or Newspaper Office or something to work as a Photographer first, but I won't give up."
"If it's a Beautiful Character, like a Ghost Character that is very good-looking, do you think it's possible to create a jump scare feeling when the character appears?"
"I think the Key is in the early groundwork, of course, it also depends on the Makeup Artist's skill and the Actor's Acting Skill..."
"Who is responsible for your Script?"
"I handle the Script myself, but sometimes everyone will get together to Discuss..."
"Are everyone else in your Interest Club Photographers?"
"No, we also have Makeup Artists, and of course, specialized Actors..."
"The actors aren't very good."
"Hahaha, Say So is not wrong, but you can't let them know that. However, our Makeup Artist's Level is not bad, and there's also a Fellow who is responsible for Post-Production, he's also very powerful..."
"What are your thoughts on Position and Salary after Graduation..."
"What do you think..."
Conan really wanted to ask what Chi Feichei was trying to do, but the two were chatting too enthusiastically, and he had no Opportunity to interrupt.
Chi Feichei chatted with Yotsuya Iwanao for more than half an Hour, and only stood up when he faintly heard Police Siren sounds from Outside.
Huh? Is it over?
Conan, who had been dozing off while listening, also stood up and Yawned.
He found that Chi Feichei was quite talkative. No wonder he could stall the Criminal for more than half an Hour last time.
"If you're interested in THK Entertainment Company, you can take some Time to Communication with the Makeup Artist and Post-Production people in your Interest Club, and ask them to come along," Chi Feichei took out a Black Business Card and handed it to Yotsuya Iwanao, who had also stood up, "Give this Business Card to the Front Desk, and someone will receive you."
"Ah?" Yotsuya Iwanao took the Business Card and looked down, "Thank You..."
Conan craned his neck to glance. The Black Business Card had 'THK Entertainment Company' in gold on the back, and the Words on the front were just 'Advisor Chi' and a UL Account, with no Phone Number left.
Advisor of Shinchi Pet Hospital, Advisor of Shinchi Group, Advisor of THK Entertainment Company... Is this Little Friend of his a professional Advisor?
However, Chi Feichei seemed to just be here to poach people for the Company. Then why did he come over and sit and listen for so long?
"Knock knock!"
The Room Door was knocked.
"Hello, I am from Metropolitan Police Department Investigation Division One of Tokyo..."
......
The Police arrived and gathered all the residents of the Apartment in the Main Entrance Hall.
Inspector Megure, an old acquaintance, was not there. Police Officer Takagi was in charge of leading the team.
"Police Officer Takagi?" Mori Kogoro went Go Downstairs and looked around, "Huh? Inspector Megure isn't here. Is he sick? No, even if Inspector Megure took leave, Officer Sato should be leading the team, right?"
Wataru Takagi: "No..."
"I get it!" Mori Kogoro put his arm around Wataru Takagi's Shoulder and said with a big smile, "You kid got Promotion, right? Congratulations!"
"No, Mr. Mouri!" Wataru Takagi said with a dry smile. Inspector Megure was right, these Detectives really do things their own way. Can't they let him finish speaking? "I came here this time just to understand some Situation from the Apartment residents here."
Mori Kogoro's Expression became serious, "Did some Case happen?"
Wataru Takagi looked at the other residents and simply explained the cause and effect: the Metropolitan Police Department suddenly received News from the Police Department, asking them to pick up a Criminal. They went to a Park according to the Instruction and saw two Home Delivery cardboard boxes next to the Bench...
Yes, large Leopard Express cardboard boxes.
They took the two People All in the Home Delivery back to the Metropolitan Police Department for questioning. Coupled with the Hint on the Home Delivery and the Statement from the Police Department, they determined that these two People All were the Criminal who murdered Miss Tian Yuan Lei 4 years ago.
Initially, Banchi Kikuji still pretended to be stupid, but the Wanted Criminal with a scar on his Face was tricked by the Police, and he confessed everything. Banchi Kikuji also pleaded guilty Afterwards...
"Wait," Mori Kogoro was a little surprised, "Mr. Banchi Kikuji? Could it be..."
Wataru Takagi Nodded, "That's right. According to his confession, he is a resident of Room 4 on the First Floor of this Apartment, and that Wanted man was hiding in the Unfinished Building Next Door. Mr. Banchi would deliver Food, Water, and Cigarette to the other party every once in a while, until Recently, an Old Gentleman living in the Apartment Building accidentally Saw a Red Dot floating in the Unfinished Building, which was actually the Wanted man smoking in the Opposite Building..."
"He must be talking about me," Otoashi Houichi asked in Doubt, "If the Red Dot is a Cigarette Butt, then sometimes I also See Blue and Green Light flashing in the Building Next Door in the middle of the Night. What is that?"
"It should be the Wanted man watching Television late at Night to pass the Time," Wataru Takagi looked down at the Record in his Handbook, "Because the Old Gentleman mistakenly thought it was a Monster causing trouble, Mr. Banchi was also worried that the residents here would find out about the Wanted Accomplice sooner or later, so he Decided to play tricks and scare away all the residents here."
"B-But, but, I really Saw it!" Mouri Ran said with lingering fear, "Even though no Videotape was playing, there was a burned Woman shouting 'Get out!' on the Television!"
Mori Kogoro was Speechless, "Didn't I tell you? That..."
"Oh, that, that's a Horror Video that Mr. Banchi made himself by making a Model and Video Recording," Wataru Takagi explained, looking at the Notes he had made, "He plays the Video Recording in his own Camcorder, connects the Public Antenna of the Apartment to the Output Terminal of his Camcorder, and the Horror Film will be transmitted to the Public Antenna. Then, using a Multifunctional Remote Control, he sets the Brand of the Old Gentleman's Home Television, stands On the Wall Outside to control the Old Gentleman's Home Television, so that the Old Gentleman's Home Television starts to receive and play the Horror Film transmitted by the Antenna. He also added Phenolphthalein to the Toilet Tank and Ammonia Water to the Toilet. When others use the Toilet to flush, the two Waters mix and turn Red..."
"But can it really work?" Botan Tsuyuhiko couldn't help but Say, "After the Water containing these two ingredients mixes, it should be Pinkish Red, right?"
Wataru Takagi said Smilingly, "The Restroom Lighting is very dim, and Ordinary Person who See the Water in the Toilet suddenly turning Red won't pay attention to whether it's Blood-Red or a slightly Pinkish Red."
Mori Kogoro: "......"
Huh? Is the Pace a bit off?
Conan: "......"
Isn't this kind of eloquent scene usually dominated by Detectives?
"Also, sometimes he would also apply Female Moth Pheromone, which is used for Pest Control, to the Screen Window, paint it into a Human Shape, and attract Male Moth to fly to the Screen Window and stay, making people mistakenly believe that there is a Figure staring into the Room Outside the window," Wataru Takagi held his Notebook and turned a page, "To make the Figure more realistic, he also pasted Black Paper imitating Ghost Shadow's Eyes and Mouth on the Screen Window..."
"So it was that Fellow who was causing trouble," Botan Tsuyuhiko pushed up his Glasses, "I said long ago, what Ghost, that kind of Things simply doesn't exist!"
"Yes," Wataru Takagi Nodded and continued to Look at his Notebook, "According to Mr. Banchi's confession, today he Saw the Old Gentleman bringing Mr. Mouri and Mr. Chi and their party to the Apartment. He was worried that the Accomplice hiding in the Unfinished Building Next Door would be discovered, so he first played Tricks in the Toilet of the Second-Floor Restroom, and secretly added Hypnotic Drug to the Outdoor Air Conditioning, making you fall asleep. Then he used the Method I mentioned before to make the Television play Horror Video. Afterwards, the Companion in the Building Downstairs greeted him and made a strange noise after Go Upstairs. When he was curious and followed up to See, he was punched and kicked after being covered with a Sack..."
"Huh?" Mori Kogoro was Stunned.
Punching and Kicking?
Conan: "......"
Only July would do things like sending special Live Delivery Home Delivery, right? Does that Fellow have violent tendencies?
Hassashi: "......"
Takatori is so irritable.
Chi Feichei: "......"
Is Takatori's Mood not good Recently?
"According to Mr. Banchi, he became more and more sleepy when he was being beaten, and then fell asleep. When he woke up again, he was already at the Metropolitan Police Department. The Sack should have been sprayed with Hypnotic Drug," Wataru Takagi put away his Handbook, "He originally Intended to play Tricks on the Screen Window, but he didn't have Time."
"The person who would put people in Home Delivery cardboard boxes, could it be..." Mori Kogoro glanced at Wataru Takagi.
Wataru Takagi leaned close to Mori Kogoro's ear and whispered, "It's not July, I heard it's another Bounty Hunter, Code Name Flying Eagle."
Huh? Not July?
Conan asked curiously, "Police Officer Takagi, then why does Flying Eagle also use Home Delivery cardboard boxes to pack people? Does he have any Relationship with July?"
"I'm not very clear about the specific Situation either. As Bounty Hunters, they should know each other, right?" Wataru Takagi recalled and continued to reveal News in a low voice, "July seems to have helped Flying Eagle deliver Wanted Criminals, also using Home Delivery. However, this time the Home Delivery wasn't directly delivered to the Metropolitan Police Department. We suspect that Flying Eagle and July only had Benefit Cooperation last time. Afterwards, Flying Eagle and July had a Conflict, and Flying Eagle wants to send Criminals independently. To avoid them fighting and harming Ordinary Person, the Community Safety Department and Mobile Investigation Unit have now assembled and prepared for a response..."
Chi Feichei: "......"
The Police's imagination doesn't have to be so rich.
"After All, July has a Criminal Record," Wataru Takagi said with a solemn Expression.
Chi Feichei: "......"
Okay, he and Spider made a bit of a big deal last time. It's normal for the Police to prepare in advance.
